About Karkarduma
Karkarduma Metro Station is a notable interchange station in East Delhi, connecting the Blue Line with the Pink Line in a distinctive two-level elevated structure where the metro tracks at different heights cross each other. This unique engineering arrangement makes Karkarduma one of the more visually striking interchange stations in the Delhi Metro network.
Opened in 2018 when the Pink Line was added, the station serves the Karkarduma area which is primarily known for the Karkarduma District Courts complex - one of Delhi's busiest court campuses. The station sees consistent footfall from lawyers, litigants, court staff, and East Delhi residents who use the Pink Line to reach other parts of the city without going through Rajiv Chowk.
The Pink Line at Karkarduma connects eastward toward Anand Vihar (ISBT) and westward toward the outer circular corridor (Rajouri Garden, Azadpur, Lajpat Nagar). This gives East Delhi residents a new cross-city connectivity option that bypasses the crowded central hub.
